I am going to start playing some of the WSOP Step tourney's on Pokerstars. It seems the only Step 1 is a turbo. How do you guys approach turbo's? What changes do you make to your game? Thanks!

don't wait as long? seriously. the blinds are always going up soon, and you get to 50/100 in 15 minutes instead of 45. so play your good hands fast and get into shovebot mode a little sooner. in the first round there will be a buncha maniacs ready to go busto with middle pair. you'll have to avoid making hero laydowns against these guys. don't c-bet in 3way pots with nothing (like AK on a Q92 board).
What JoJo said about c-betting is absolutely critical. In a turbo chips are too precious to be c-betting a good portion of your stack when you miss your hand completely. C-betting into that donk who called your raise w/Q10 is just a waste of time and chips. Early in the turbos play tight and very aggressive, meaning only play premium hands and play them fast pre flop and fast when you hit. I wouldn't hesitate to get in all in with pairs JJ and up as well as AK. G'luck.
